After all, the elderly lived there.
The thug trembled in fear, nearly at his wit's end: "I—I don’t know, this lady, we’re just doing some odd jobs. Someone above pays us, and we do the work. We don’t know who sent us here."
His words were confused and stumbling.
Amelia, however, detected something off in his tone. "So, you’re taking under-the-table jobs?"
The thug hesitated, glancing at the man he had knocked over.
Amelia immediately raised her foot and stepped on the man’s hand.
He immediately curled up in pain, his hand slapping the ground desperately. "Yes, yes! We’re taking under-the-table jobs!"
Amelia finally moved her foot, turning her gaze back to the terrified man. "Looks like you’re the lead

"Julian." The thug answered without hesitation, clearly too scared to run. "Lady, we were just trying to scare you. We didn’t mean to do anything else. We thought, you’re just a young girl, if we shout at you a bit, you’d leave LA.""Right! What the boss said is true! Who knew you’d just start beating us up without saying a word!"This was the most ridiculous thing they had encountered in all their years of work!Amelia had listened enough. Her tone was light as she said, "You did manage to scare me, so for the emotional distress, you’ll need to compensate me."The thugs were stunned: Who’s being scared? They were the ones with bruises, broken bones, and who knew what else!Amelia smiled. "What’s wrong? You don’t want to pay? Fine, I’ll call the police, and you’ll all have a record.""Wait, wait!" Julian stretched out his hand, gritting his teeth in pain. "Lady, we’re willing

These were the only two Amelia hadn’t attacked.Julian shuddered when he heard her words. How did she know he was doing this for them...?Amelia’s voice was lazy. "You take jobs, fine. But why not take mine? At least it’s legal."Julian had accepted all sorts of jobs over the years—helping husbands catch their wives cheating, intimidating mistresses, dealing with troublesome mothers-in-law. There were even more questionable jobs, like forcing elderly people to vacate their homes for their daughters-in-law.All sorts of things. But usually, when they arrived, the average person would be scared. Even if they weren’t, they certainly wouldn’t think of them as good people.This was the first time they hadn’t scared anyone and had ended up losing their subordinates instead.Julian lowered his voice, "We don’t do anything too extreme.""I’m a doctor, treating patients. What’s too ex

"Harmony Clinic?" Julian's voice trailed off as the name sounded familiar. The little thug next to him reminded, "It’s the place where we had the foot massage before." Amelia raised an eyebrow, "What a coincidence, they used to be our customers." Julian froze, "But wasn’t it an old lady doing the foot massages…?" Amelia remained unfazed, "That’s right, it was my grandmother. It used to be a foot massage shop, but starting tomorrow, it’ll be a traditional medicine clinic. It’s kind of funny that you guys came here to intimidate us without even checking customer records." Julian’s face turned slightly red. "We’re just trying to make a living, but don’t worry, we won’t be bothering you again." Amelia picked up her black bag from the side, her brows slightly raised, "Call your boss." Julian didn’t react immediately. "Huh?" The pale-haired boy, though lacking in sight, was quick to react. "Boss." "Report on time tomorrow," Amelia said, satisfied, as she waved her hand. "Now, you c

Clearly, Amelia didn’t want to discuss the issue any further. She took a few steps forward, her black boots clicking against the ground, her long hair flowing down to her waist. Her legs were long and slender, her fair skin almost glowing. But Carl still noticed something unusual about her right wrist. Suddenly, he raised her wrist, his dark eyes lowering as he asked, “What happened here?” Amelia was unconcerned. “I must have scraped it against a tree while avoiding hitting the wrong person. It’s fine, I’ll take care of it when I get back…” Her sentence was abruptly cut off. It was because of Carl’s sudden movement. He leaned down, his lips brushing against her wrist. His touch was dangerously close, yet gentle and tender. It wasn’t quite a kiss, but the coolness of his lips eased the burning sensation from her injury. Amelia had never been this close to anyone before. She instinctively tried to pull her wrist away. But Carl tightened his grip, his deep gaze lifting to meet her

“Alright.” Amelia agreed without giving it much thought. After everyone had left, she suddenly felt that this whole "reporting before leaving" action seemed a bit ambiguous. And the slight coolness still lingering on her wrist seemed to remind her of the man's presence at all times... On the other side, Carl had reached the street corner. His car was already waiting—an exclusive, limited-edition Maybach. The driver respectfully bent down and opened the door. At that moment, Carl was entirely different from the way he had been in front of Amelia. He raised his hand and casually undid his diamond cufflinks. The oppressive aura in his dark eyes made those watching through the video hesitate to even look him in the eye. “Handle everything.” That was the first thing he said. “Anything else can wait until I arrive.” Once he removed the beads, it was as if a restraint had been lifted from him. Besides his usual cold and noble demeanor, there was a subtle danger in his gaze, deep an

Amelia looked at the old, worn passbook and spoke up, “Grandma, I have money.” “You had money before, but now you’ve been kicked out. That family even stopped your credit cards.” Grandma Victoria gently stroked her long hair. “You always know how to make me happy.” Amelia smiled lightly. “Grandma, I…” Before Amelia could explain further, Grandma Victoria’s old mobile phone began ringing loudly, each ring more jarring than the last. Grandma Victoria glanced at the caller ID, and her gentle expression shifted. She started to stand, intending to take the call in private. Amelia, quick to catch on, asked, “Is it Mary Crawford?” Grandma Victoria, unable to hide the truth, nodded in resignation. Amelia smiled gently. “Grandma, answer it. Elijah and I are grown up now. Whatever happens, we’ll be here with you.” Hearing her granddaughter’s words, Grandma Victoria felt a warmth spread in her heart. Suddenly, she felt stronger and answered the call she had been avoiding. “Well, you fin

Grandma Victoria smiled and replied, “Alright, thank you. I understand.”At this point, when someone offers help, it’s out of kindness, and it’s perfectly normal if they don’t. Grandma Victoria understood the value of courtesy.The Smith family urged her, “Why don’t we just forget it and not reopen? Old Ye, let me give you a piece of advice: this shop won’t make it. If you’re short on food or clothing, we old folks can still secretly help out.”The word “secretly” hinted at the true nature of things.Five thousand wasn’t a big deal for families like theirs. It might not even cover the cost of a meal that Mary would host, but she refused to give it, and she didn’t want anyone else to either.People often talk about wicked mothers-in-law, but they rarely mention that some daughters-in-law are even worse.Amelia’s eyes darkened, and her fingers absentmindedly tapped the table.It seemed casual, but there was a growing dark aura around her, with only her eyes glowing, hiding the danger l

"Of course, we'll make more. When Harmony Clinic becomes popular, we can open branches," Amelia said as she gently adjusted Grandma Victoria's gray hair by her temple. "You’ve always wanted to go to New York, right? Let’s open a shop there." Grandma Victoria chuckled as she listened. "My silly girl, do you think anyone can just open a shop in New York? That’s the capital of our country! But I’m so happy to see that you, my Amelia, have such big ambitions!" Grandma Victoria, had lived a long life. When she was young, she was too strong-willed and didn’t understand people’s hearts. By the time she got older, she had lost her job, her legs were no longer strong, and she couldn’t even maintain the prestigious reputation of her medical family. Her son was ungrateful, and her daughter-in-law was even worse. She often wondered, if she could choose again, what would she have done differently… But she didn’t need to choose again. With Amelia and Elijah by her side, and still able to pract

"Amelia!?" How could it be that girl?! Jackson stepped back in disbelief, nearly stumbling. If it weren’t for the bodyguards catching him, he might have collapsed right there. Mr. Lee, who had even canceled a business meeting just to see someone, was actually meeting with Amelia?! How could that be?! Jackson was dragged a meter away and slowly regained his composure, but by then, it was too late to rush back inside and see clearly. He couldn’t be mistaken—it was definitely Amelia! And she was sitting with the old lady, the same one who had picked up that little beggar all those years ago! But how could that girl have any connection to Mr. Lee? Jackson racked his brain, then suddenly had a flash of insight. "Live stream!" he murmured to himself. "I remember Mary said the old lady was doing live streaming with that girl!"
Princess Cromwell and Her Six Brothers Chapter 139
Jackson had his own little tricks. With such a grand entrance, it was easy for anyone to notice when Mr. Lee arrived. He could ask Uncle Will and Emma to inquire about where Mr. Lee went, and it wouldn’t be hard to find out which restaurant he was at. If that didn’t work, he would just go find the old lady! But before he could even make it inside, he saw Assistant Ken standing guard outside a copper drum hotpot restaurant. And the table by the window was none other than Chris! Jackson was stunned. He had been eating at this copper drum hotpot since he was a child, and the place was small and run-down. How could someone like Mr. Lee, such a big shot, be eating here? In reality, it was Amelia who chose the place. When Amelia did things, she prioritized convenience: "More meat, Elijah loves it." Chris, with a smile that bordered on flattery, said, "Bring 20 plates of lamb!" Eli

"I... I... this..." He really didn’t know how to explain himself anymore!In the end, it was Amelia who rescued him. She softly comforted the old lady, "Grandmother, he was introduced by the Hart family and has appeared on our LA TV station.""Appeared on TV!?" Mrs. Victoria’s attitude changed immediately. She looked at Chris, "Then he’s a distinguished guest. We must treat him well!"Chris now began to feel lucky for having appeared on television these past two days."No need for that. I—"Amelia interrupted him with a smile, "Yes, we do need to treat him well. I'll take him to a restaurant later.""Right, we should go to a restaurant," Mrs. Victoria added. People of their age may not trust much, but they certainly believed in TV recommendations, "Your Grandpa Hart still thinks about us."Chris: ... Hart? Which Hart? Who is that?Amelia gave him a look, "Our principal is always like this. You know

Assistant Ken still couldn't believe it. His hands were still trembling as he adjusted his glasses. If Jackson ever found out the boss's true identity, he'd regret it for sure! Now, Assistant Ken understood why Mr. Will had entrusted certain projects to Milton's small company—it was all because of the big boss! Holding his glasses, Assistant Ken opened his mouth: "... Boss, you..." "It seems Assistant Ken has recognized me," Amelia said, a faint smile playing on her lips, her dark eyes gleaming. Assistant Ken quickly explained, "I didn’t know it was you back at the Milton family villa. If I had, I would have... I would have..." "I didn’t want anyone to know," Amelia casually played with her teacup, her voice calm. "You did the right thing." Chris, confused, asked, "Milton family villa? What’s this about?" Assistant Ken lowered his gaze, "Mr. Lee, I&

“Uncle, why are you still trying to deceive me?” The person who entered wasn’t anyone else—it was Chris, laughing heartily with a smug expression on his face. Uncle Will, startled, quickly hid behind Amelia. Amelia lifted her eyes slightly, her gaze calm and indifferent, her face still stunningly beautiful and captivating. It was impossible not to notice her. As soon as Chris entered, his eyes fell on the young girl, but he didn’t immediately recognize her as someone connected to his boss. With his bodyguards in tow, he confidently walked further inside. “Kid, is your elder around? I’m not feeling too well, and I saw your live stream online, so I thought I’d come check on you.” Chris knew how to play the game. Since the boss lived in a place like this, it was clear she preferred to keep her identity low-profile. However

“Mr. Lee, this is the place.” The luxury vehicle stopped at a street corner. Chris looked skeptically at the narrow, old stone alley and furrowed his brows. “Are you sure?” How could the boss be in a place like this? Nearby, there was a vegetable market, with elderly people bargaining for produce. Chris had never set foot in a place like this since he entered the business world. Assistant Ken, who was always calm, said, “This is indeed ClearWater Alley. Or would you prefer to go to the hospital across the street to find someone?” “Hospitals? No, no.” Chris pointed to the alley. “This is fine. Let’s go in.” The boss would never go to a hospital—she hated the smell of blood. With that, Chris jumped out of the car, followed by a row of black-suited bodyguards. The scene looked

Meanwhile, on another livestream, things weren’t going as smoothly in pretty girl's stream. The viewers were relentless, urging MrBigbro to send another 50 meteor showers. 【Love pretty girl: MrBigbro, can you really put up with this?】 【Hope it's You: MrBigbro, keep it going!】 【Take a Look: MrBigbro can't be out of steam, right?】 MrBigbro, being an internal staff member of the platform, didn’t mind sending a few gifts, but he wasn’t foolish either. With a cigarette in his mouth, he typed, 【MrBigbro: Another 50 meteor showers? Is that what Sister pretty girl wants too?】 pretty girl, though unwilling, forced a smile and replied, “Of course not, MrBigbro. Just having you come to my live stream makes me so happy! You’ve always been so generous, and you’ve already sent so much today—MrBigbro, you’re truly amazing!” The small

"Mr. Lee, I’ve been waiting so long to see you..." Jackson stretched out his hand, eager to establish a connection. The bodyguards immediately blocked him: "Mr. Lee has important matters to attend to. Business talks will be tomorrow." "It’s not business!" Jackson struggled, trying to push forward. "It’s a personal matter, a personal matter!" The bodyguards hesitated for a moment. Then, Chris’s voice cut through: "Who’s blocking the way? Move them aside." Jackson knew that if he delayed Chris in finding the boss, he’d be the one held responsible! Seeing that his initial approach wasn’t working, Jackson shouted loudly, "Mr. Lee, why is Wilson Group cutting off cooperation with Milton's Group? There was no warning at all! What should I do about all the steel I’ve stockpiled!" The bodyguards had no patience for his shouting and immediately cov

"Mr. Lee?" The person speaking looked at him in confusion. Chris didn’t care about the influence these people had in LA. He grabbed one of them and asked, "It’s her. Do you know this streamer?" The person was stunned. "Mr. Lee, this is the business association. She’s just a small-time streamer..." "What do you know!" Chris didn’t say the rest of his thoughts aloud, but his irritation was clear. "Forget it, I’ll find her myself." ClearWater Alley, Harmony Clinic—he could follow the navigation to get there. This meeting, which was meant to attract foreign investment, had originally been set up for Chris’s benefit. Now that he wanted to leave, others were definitely going to be upset. "Mr. Lee, the meeting isn’t finished yet. You..." Remington, relying on his influence in the pharmaceutical field, added a few more words. "It&rsq
